Individual Berry Galette Recipe
So, what exactly is a galette? Put simply, a galette is a French pastry that almost always consist of flaky pie crust and fresh fruit. They’re perfect for summertime! While you can really use any fruit you’d like to fill the galettes, I love using fresh summery berries like strawberries, blackberries, and blueberries. Most galettes are large, like pies, and served in slices. However, I’ve found that these small galettes are just as easy to make as a regular sized one, and it’s much more satisfying to serve them individually to friends. They’re like handing out little handheld pies – except they might just be tastier (and more unique) than most pies! When I hear the term “French dessert,” I tend to get a little bit nervous. That usually means that there will be plenty of intrinsic steps and hours spent in the kitchen making sure it’s all perfect. However, this hassle free recipe comes together in just over 30 minutes! This really is the perfect dessert to make for your next summertime party.
